Tracing COBOL Process

Below are the steps to trace a COBOL process.

Go to PeopleTools > Process Schedule > Process Types and copy the parameter list value, which is:

%%PRCSNAME%%/%%DBTYPE%%/%%DBNAME%%/%%OPRID%%/%%OPRPSWD%%/%%RUNCNTLID%%/%%INSTANCE%%/135/%%DBFLAG%%

Then navigate to the COBOL process which you want to trace and go to the Override Options page.

Select Override for the Parameter List and paste the SAME value you copied from the Process Type page here. Save the page.

** Do not take out anything from the string

 Now run the COBOL process you want to trace. Once the process goes to success you can see the Trace file under the View Log/Trace.
